This six-song mini album is a tribute
to Condors' leader Pat DiPuccio's former band, Blow-Up. It's upbeat, classic rock and roll, with an
edgy side of pop on top. The songs were re-recorded to give them the production
and love they deserved.From the moment they took flight with their first release, “Tales Of
Drunkeness and Cruelty”, The Condors knew they were onto something special -
pop songs withattitude, power, and intellect.Their second CD,
“Wait For It”, garnered a great deal of airplay and glowing reviewsworldwide. Loosely chronicling a night in the day of a fanzine writer,
the album blasts sonically from start to finish. Next came the
appropriately named “3 Item Combo” which delved into morepersonal and emotional themes while still retaining the group’s
trademark grit. The Condors had frequently played some of Pat's former band
Blow-Up's songs live, so while working on their fourth album, the time seemed
right to include a few of them. Many of the songs Pat co-wrote in that group
never made it past the demo stage and, as such, didn't receive the benefit of a
full studio production. Rather than divide the record into songs from two
bands, The Condors made the decision to record six re-worked Blow-Up numbers,
and release them as mini album. The remaining tracks will form the basis of
their next full-length project. A few people involved with Blow-Up even dropped
by to lend their talents to the sessions. Singer Jody Worth added background
vocals to three of the songs, and Michael Rummans (who Pat had played alongside
with in The Sloths) laid down a couple of bass tracks. Even producer/engineer
extraordinaire Winter Lazerus (who Pat had known since high school) added some
tasty piano to the song "Girl Trouble."“This trio creates a full and energetic
sound that ignites their live shows. This
EP will really appeal to fans of The Connection, Watts or Kurt Baker. Highlights include ‘Girl Trouble,’ ‘Tell It
To The Judge’ and my favorite instrumental this year, ‘High Chaparral’.” –
Powerpopaholic.com“An ace little effort which holds the ‘all killer, no
filler’ credo close to its Telecaster-toting heart.If you’re looking for something to push an
envelope, straddle genres or get Brian Eno all hot under the collar, then you’d
better keep flipping through the pages of ‘Wired’. But, if you want some tough-but-tuneful music
that falls somewhere between NRBQ and Jason and the Scorchers, then here ya go!”
– Rockerzine.com You can throw the Forty Nionettens and Terry Anderson in there too! It's all good. GREAT!!
